The prizes for the people ranked behind were even worse.
According to their ranking, the grade three spirit weapons and grade three Life Recovery Pills gradually reduced, and when it came to Zhang Shou Yong at the tenth, he only obtained a single grade three spirit weapon and a single bottle of grade three Life Recovery Pills.
As for Concept Fragments, the fourth to the sixth respectively obtained three, two, and one third level Concept Fragments.
The seventh to the ninth respectively obtained three, two, and one second level Concept Fragments.
The tenth, Zhang Shou Yong, obtained three first level Concept Fragments.
Even then, Zhang Shou Yong was bursting with joy, because there just happened to be an Earth Concept Fragment amongst the three first level Concept Fragments.
Duan Ling Tian sighed when he saw the brilliant smile on Zhang Shou Yong’s face, and he casually withdrew the Spatial Ring he’d just obtained and took out the three fourth level Concept Fragments contained within.
"I wonder if there’s an Earth Concept Fragment amongst them." Duan Ling Tian thought in his heart.
The facts proved that Duan Ling Tian’s luck wasn’t bad, and there just happened to be an Earth Concept Fragment amongst the three fourth level Concept Fragments.
"Big Brother Zhang." Duan Ling Tian took out the fourth level Earth Concept Fragment and passed it to Zhang Shou Yong.
"Brother Ling Tian, you’ve comprehended Earth Concept as well, so keep it for yourself." Zhang Shou Yong’s eyes revealed a trace of gratitude as he shook his head and refused Duan Ling Tian’s good intentions.
"Big Brother Zhang, I possess an Earth Concept Fragment with an even higher level," said Duan Ling Tian via voice transmission.
He’s obtained a seventh level Earth Concept Fragment in the Sword Monarch’s Treasure all those years ago, so unless it was an eighth level Earth Concept Fragment or above, otherwise, he wouldn’t be interested.
After some tactful persuasion, Zhang Shou Yong took the fourth level Earth Concept Fragment.
Subsequently, Duan Ling Tian gave Feng Tian Wu the fourth level Fire Concept Fragment amongst the two remaining Concept Fragments.
The final Concept Fragment was a Water Concept Fragment, and Su Li had no use of it, so he casually tossed it back into his Spatial Ring.
After the rewards were completely distributed, most of the people were immersed in joy, and only when Ning Can spoke out once more did the scene quiet down. "Representatives and young geniuses from the ten Dynasties... The rewards distributed earlier are only the rewards for the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties." Ning Can’s voice entered clearly into the ears of every single person present.
It’s only the rewards for the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties?
Ning Can’s words caused many of the representatives and young geniuses to have puzzled expressions as they didn’t know what Ning Can’s words meant, yet all of them still looked at Ning Can with anticipation.
They were able to discern that there was a continuation to Ning Can’s words.
"Today, our Skywolf Fort will be recruiting disciples... Any young genius of the ten Dynasties that’s at the Void Interpretation Stage or above may join our Skywolf Fort." Ning Can said with a sonorous voice, "Once all of you join our Skywolf Fort, our Skywolf Fort will bestow more Concept Fragments, spirit weapons, and medicinal pills to all of you. Even the Dynasties all of you are from will obtain generous rewards!"
As soon as Ning Can finished speaking, many young geniuses present were moved by this.
After the numerous rounds of selections in the martial competition, almost every single one of the young geniuses from the ten Dynasties that were able to be standing here were existences at the Void Interpretation Stage or above.
In other words, every single one of them were able to join the Skywolf Fort and become a disciple of the Skywolf Fort.
"Our Blade Sect similarly welcomes every one of you to join us." Meanwhile, Sword 13 spoke out as well, and then he added. "What we give won’t be less than the Skywolf Fort."
Instantly, even more people were moved.
The Blade Sect was a formidable power of the Foreign Lands that wasn’t inferior to the Skywolf Fort, and the might Sword 13 had revealed earlier caused them to rather admire and be attracted to the Blade Sect.
"Buddha be praised..." The middle aged monk, Hui Ming, stood out as well, and then he said with a sonorous voice. "The Empyrean Temple opens its doors and invites the entrance of all male young geniuses, and we’ll surely not treat all of you shabbily."
The group of young geniuses went silent when they heard the monk.
After a short while, a young genius couldn’t help but asked. "Monk, I heard that not only must we bald ourselves, we must practice abstinence from meat and lust, and chant prayers in your Empyrean Temple... Is it really like this?"
Instantly, the group of young geniuses looked over.
If it was really like this, then was there any meaning in living? No matter how great a benefit they obtained, they would surely be unwilling to join the Empyrean Temple.
"Buddha be praised, everyone, you’ve misunderstood." Hui Ming laughed bitterly. "Our Empyrean Temple is divided into those that have become monks and those that haven’t. Disciples that haven’t become monks aren’t governed by these rules."
"That’s still alright." Hui Ming’s answer caused many young men to heave a sigh of relief.
"The Emotion Severing Sect welcomes all of you to join us!" Pei An, the Sect Master of the Emotion Severing Sect spoke out, and his expression was emotionless as he spoke coldly.
The four great powers of the Foreign Lands recruiting disciples at the same time caused many young geniuses to find it slightly difficult choose.
Of course, some people already had their choices.
For example, Duan Ling Tian, Feng Tian Wu, and Zhang Shou Yong stood by Sword 13’s side, and they were obviously intending to head to the Blade Sect with Sword 13.
On the other hand, Zi Shang followed by Ning Can’s side instead, as the personal disciple of Ning Can, he naturally joined the Skywolf Fort.
Duan Ling Tian and Zi Shang were the first and second in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties this time, and both of them already had a home.
For a time, the third, Qi Feng, had become the target the four great powers competed for.
"Qi Feng, the Emotion Severing Sect welcomes you." The Sect Master of the Emotion Severing Sect, Pei An, was the first to speak with an invitation.
"Qi Feng, our Blade Sect welcomes you to join us." Sword 13 invited as well. He’d clearly seen Qi Feng’s ability earlier, and his archery skills were really extraordinary.
Most importantly, Qi Feng was calm, patient, and decisive, and this displayed his value even more.
"Buddha be praised... The Empyrean Temple invites benefactor Qi Feng to join us." Hui Ming was unwilling to lag behind.
"Qi Feng, if you don’t join my Skywolf Fort, then I’ll send people to annihilate your family!" Feng Wei who’d once threatened Qi Feng earlier send a voice transmission to threaten Qi Feng once more. As far as he was concerned, since Qi Feng had yielded once, Qi Feng would yield again.
"If I don’t join your Skywolf Fort, you’ll annihilate my family? Vice Fort Master Feng, are you inviting me? Or are you threatening me?" Unfortunately, Qi Feng didn’t choose to endure any longer, and he instead looked at Feng Wei and asked with a low voice.
Whoosh!
As soon as Qi Feng said this, the entire scene was in an uproar.
For the sake of making Qi Feng join the Skywolf Fort, the Vice Fort Master of Skywolf Fort, Feng Wei, had actually threatened Qi Feng like this?
For a time, the representatives and young geniuses of the ten Dynasties frowned in unison.
Since Feng Wei could threaten Qi Feng, wouldn’t it represent that he was able to threaten them as well?
"Qi Feng, you... Don’t you dare make slanderous accusations of me!" Feng Wei’s face went ominous. Never had he imagined that Qi Feng would actually dare shed all pretenses and repeat his threats. Moreover, Qi Feng had spoken it out loud.
"Making slanderous accusations? Hmph!" Qi Feng glanced indifferently at Feng Wei before grunting coldly, then he looked at the Sect Master of the Emotion Severing Sect, Pei An, and his expression eased up as he asked respectfully. "Sect Master Pei, will the Emotion Severing Sect be able to protect my family and friends’ safety if I join the Emotion Severing Sect?"
As soon as Qi Feng said this, Ning Can and Feng Wei’s faces went grim.
Duan Ling Tian smiled lightly as he never imagined that Qi Feng would be so brave to actually dare trap the Skywolf Fort like this.
As soon as Qi Feng said this, it practically affirmed the fact that the Skywolf Fort had threatened him, and this time, the Skywolf Fort would be unable to wash it away no matter what they did.
Just like Duan Ling Tian thought, when the representatives and young geniuses of the ten Dynasties looked at Ning Can and Feng Wei, their eyes contained slight rejection.
"Feng Wei, what a great thing you’ve done!" Ning Can’s voice transmission pierced into Feng Wei’s ears as he cursed. "Just because of your threats to Qi Feng, our Skywolf Fort might have completely done everything to only benefit the other three powers in the end!"
Feng Wei’s expression went even more gloomy when he heard Ning Can’s curses. Of course, he didn’t dare vent his feelings on Ning Can.
His eyes were filled with coldness, and his gaze locked on tightly onto Qi Feng.
"Of course!" When facing Qi Feng’s question, Pei An nodded lightly without the slightest hesitation, and then he said with an expressionless face, "If you’re willing to join my Emotion Severing Sect, then I can speak now... One who lays a hand on the loved ones of you, Qi Feng, is one who’d going against I, Pei An!"
When Pei An made such a promise, it caused Sword 13 and Hui Ming to be unable to help but shake their heads and sigh.
They knew they had no chance to obtain Qi Feng.
Instantly, their gazes moved to the person that was ranked at the fourth, Qin Kong, but unfortunately, they hadn’t even had the chance to speak when Qin Kong had already said, "I’ll go wherever Qi Feng goes!"
Sword 13 and Hui Ming instantly started laughing bitterly.
"Sect Master Pei, I’m willing to join your Emotion Severing Sect." After Qi Feng heard Pei An’s agreement, he agreed right away and joined the Emotion Severing Sect!
"Alright!" Pei An nodded, and a rare wisp of a slight smile appeared on the corners of his mouth. "I welcome the both of you."
Obviously, he’d heard Qin Kong’s words as well.
For a time, the third and fourth of the martial competition had both joined the Emotion Severing Sect.
"Ta Mu, our Skywolf Fort welcomes you to join us." Ning Can looked at Ta Mu who was ranked at the fifth and invited.
"Hmph!" Ta Mu grunted coldly, and then grinned. "If I refuse, will the two of you go to the Daryuan Dynasty to kill my family? If it’s so, then I’m truly sorry, but I’m an orphan."
Ning Yan was slightly embarrassed when he heard this, and he hurriedly said, "Of course not."
"You surely said no because you heard I’m an orphan!" Ta Mu had an expression that said ’Don’t try to cheat me’.
Ning Can’s face sank, and then he glared fiercely at Feng Wei who stood by his side. If it wasn’t for Feng Wei threatening Qi Feng and ruining the Skywolf Fort’s reputation, how would they possibly be in such a bad situation?
"Moreover, I’ll go wherever my Master goes!" As Ta Mu spoke, his eyes lit up as he looked at Duan Ling Tian. "I’ll join the Blade Sect!"
"The Blade Sect welcomes you." Sword 13 started laughing, and he never imagined that Duan Ling Tian’s existence would help him pull Ta Mu over.
Perhaps Ta Mu was inferior to Qi Feng and Qin Kong, but he was also a rare young expert, and he was the number one expert in the younger generation of the Daryuan Dynasty.
